3 Endorsement and Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO The consolidated financial statements of Íslandsbanki hf. for the period ended 31 December 2013 comprise the financial statements of Íslandsbanki hf. and its subsidiaries, together referred to as the Bank. Operations and ownership Íslandsbanki, with roots tracing back to 1884, is a universal bank offering comprehensive financial services to households, corporations and institutional investors. Íslandsbanki is one of Iceland's largest banking and financial services groups with total assets of ISK 866bn at the reporting date. The Bank has 20%-40% market share across all domestic franchise areas and operates an efficient branch network in Iceland. Building on a heritage of lending to Icelandic industry, the Bank has developed specific expertise in selected industry sectors; tourism, seafood, municipalities, energy and offshore service vessels. The Bank is divided into six business segments: Retail Banking, Corporate Banking, Markets, Wealth Management, Treasury and Subsidiaries & Equity Investments. At the reporting date there were 1,201 full-time employees at the Bank, thereof 988 were employees of the parent company. Íslandsbanki has two owners; ISB Holding ehf., which owns 95% of the Bank's share capital, and the Icelandic State Treasury which owns 5% through Icelandic State Financial Investments (ISFI Bankasýsla ríkisins). ISB Holding ehf. is 100% owned by a subsidiary of Glitnir hf. (GLB Holding ehf.). At a shareholder's meeting in September 2013 it was decided to increase the number of Board Members from seven to nine and thereby adding two new Board Members. This decision was made to conform to a legislation stipulating that corporate entities with more than 50 employees must ensure that the proportion of each gender on their Board of Directors is not lower than 40%. Two board members are appointed by the ISFI and the remaining seven are appointed by ISB Holding ehf. Risk Management The Bank is exposed to various risks. The management of these risks is an integral part of the Bank's operations. The ultimate responsibility for ensuring an adequate risk management framework lies with the Board of Directors. The Board defines and communicates the acceptable level of risk through the Bank's risk management policies. The Bank's risk management framework and policies are discussed under Notes The reporting period Íslandsbanki made good progress in The restructuring work that was required to be done on the loan portfolio acquired in 2008 has largely been completed, and the uncertainty surrounding foreign currency linked loans reduced. Since the Bank's establishment 35,500 individuals and 4,100 companies have received write-offs, debt forgiveness or some form of debt correction totalling ISK 543bn. Furthermore, demand for new lending to households and companies has continued to increase. VÍB, the Bank's wealth management division, has continued to consolidate its position as a leading player in its market. VÍB was the recipient of the Investment Management Award for 2013 as the best investment management company in Iceland by the British financial magazine World Finance This is an important recognition for VÍB which has focused on providing professional, high-quality services, and offering effective educational programmes both for large investors and the general public. VÍB and Íslandssjóðir founded Akur, a new private equity company, which will be an active owner of stakes in unlisted companies. The new company will have approximately ISK 7bn investment capacity. Akur will focus on investments in companies which have the potential to grow further and companies which have good near-term listing potential. In January 2014, the Bank's asset management services, VÍB, signed a distribution agreement with the world's largest asset management company BlackRock, which has operations in 30 countries. The partnership increases the wide variety of products and services supplied by VÍB in the field of asset management services in foreign markets. The financial markets are gaining momentum and the Bank has continued to play a leading role in managing bond offerings and overseeing listings on the NASDAQ OMX Iceland Stock Exchange. In 2013, the Bank managed the listing of one of the country's largest petrol stations operator, N1 hf., and is working on listings of other large Icelandic companies, including the insurance company Sjóvá Almennar hf. The Bank had the highest turnover in the equities market in 2013 with a 27.8% market share, and was second in turnover in the fixed income market in 2013 with a 21.0% share. The Bank continued the development of its branch services and in 2013 three branches were merged into a new modernised branch serving the eastern part of Reykjavik. Íslandsbanki hf.

4 Endorsement and Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO The Bank continued with its funding diversification strategy by issuing covered bonds, bringing the total issued to ISK 23.3bn. The Bank was the first bank in Iceland since 2008 to issue covered bonds and has already established itself as the largest issuer in that market. The Bank was also the first bank to list commercial paper on the Icelandic Stock Exchange in February 2013, and has issued ISK 8.5bn to date. In December 2013, Íslandsbanki issued its first international bond. More than 40 investors from Sweden, Norway and Finland subscribed to the issue, which was listed on the Irish Stock Exchange. The bond was launched under Íslandsbanki's USD 250m Global Medium Term Note (GMTN) Programme, which enables the Bank to issue bonds in a broad range of currencies at fixed or floating interest rates. The participation of international investors is a welcome sign of confidence in the direction that the Icelandic economy is taking. The financial magazine Euromoney awarded Íslandsbanki Awards for Excellence as the best bank in Iceland. The magazine bases its selection on various factors such as return on equity, balance sheet growth and strong equity and deposit ratios. Outlook Since Islandsbanki establishment in 2008 the Bank's main focus has been on restructuring of loans to individuals and corporates and thereby providing a sustainable basis for the future operations of the Bank. At the same time the Bank has put material resources into improving internal processes and corporate governance practices based on a revised regulatory structure. After 2010 the Bank has been in the forefront of rebuilding the financial market in Iceland, initiated diversification in funding for the Bank and has promoted cost efficiency after the merger with BYR, one of the biggest savings banks in Iceland. At the end of 2013 the restructuring of loans is mostly finished, financial markets have started to gain momentum and the economic environment in Iceland in general is improving. Core operations of the Bank are stable and liquidity and capital ratios are very strong. This will enable the Bank to meet future challenges. A variety of hindrances still remain. Chief among them are the capital controls in place in Iceland which, although providing stability in the foreign exchange market at a critical time, will most likely slow growth in the long-term. The large amount of foreign capital currently tied up in Icelandic krónur is the single largest obstacle to the start of lifting the capital controls. The authorities have not issued a clear timeline for lifting the capital controls, nor have they declared an exchange rate policy that might take effect afterwards. Corporate Governance Good governance promotes good work habits and communication, which in turn enhances confidence among shareholders, board of directors, management, employees and other stakeholders. One of the main objectives of the Board of Directors of Íslandsbanki is to continuously develop and strengthen its governance framework reflecting compliance with the best corporate governance practices in the financial market at all times. Íslandsbanki's management structure consists of the CEO and the Board of Directors, comprising nine non-executive directors and two alternates (the Board). The Board has ultimate authority over the Bank's affairs subject to shareholder's meetings. There are four Board subcommittees comprised of members of the Board; Board Audit Committee; Board Risk Committee; Board Strategy Committee; and Board Corporate Governance, Compensation and Human Resource Committee. The Board is responsible for the formulation of the Bank's general strategy and instructs the CEO on its further implementation and execution. The Board has a supervisory role overseeing that the Bank's organisation and activities are at all times in accordance with the relevant law, regulations and good business practices. The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Bank pursuant to the policy and resolutions of the Board of Directors. Moreover it is the task of the CEO to ensure that the Bank's operations are at all times consistent with the Bank's Articles of Association and applicable legislation. An Executive Board is appointed by the CEO, consisting of 8 members, including the CEO. The Executive Board sets the Bank's policy for operational risk at group level. The Board shall moreover monitor the execution of its policies, the sound control of accounting and financial management, and ensure that Group Internal Audit, Compliance and Risk Management are effective at all times. Group Internal Audit operates independently from other departments. The Chief Audit Executive is appointed by the Board and is responsible for internal audit on group basis and monitoring adequacy of the Bank's risk management, control and governance processes. The Board confirms the CEO's appointment of the Compliance Officer who is responsible for monitoring and assessing on a regular basis whether the Bank's operations, regarding securities transactions, are in compliance with applicable law. The Compliance Officer is moreover responsible for compliance with Act No. 64/2006, on measures against money laundering and terrorist financing. Íslandsbanki hf. Consolidated Financial Statements

15 1. Reporting entity Íslandsbanki hf. is a limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Iceland. The address of its registered office is Kirkjusandur 2, 155 Reykjavík, Iceland. The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013 were prepared on a going concern basis and comprise Íslandsbanki hf. (the parent company) and its subsidiaries (together referred to as "the Bank"). Comparative information refers to the year ended 31 December The Bank was incorporated on 8 October 2008 and commenced trading on 15 October 2008 when it acquired assets and liabilities relating to the domestic operations of Glitnir Banki hf. ("Glitnir"). Ownership of Íslandsbanki hf. is divided between ISB Holding ehf., a private limited liability company owned 100% by GLB Holding ehf. which is a private limited liability company owned 100% by Glitnir hf., which wields 95% of the voting rights and the Icelandic State Treasury, which wields 5% of the voting rights. The Icelandic State Treasury's holdings in financial undertakings are managed by The Icelandic State Financial Investments (ISFI - Bankasýsla Ríkisins) which reports to the Minister of Finance. The Bank provides a wide range of financial services such as retail banking, corporate banking, brokerage services, investment management and asset-based financing. The Bank operates in the Icelandic market. 2. Basis of preparation Statement of compliance The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. Information about new IFRS standards and amendments to standards are disclosed in Notes The consolidated financial statements were approved and authorised for issue by the Board of Directors and the CEO of Íslandsbanki hf. on 19 February The Bank's management has made an assessment of the Bank's ability to continue as a going concern and is satisfied that the Bank has the resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. 3. Functional and presentation currency These consolidated financial statements are presented in Icelandic krona (ISK), which is the functional currency of Íslandsbanki hf. All amounts presented in ISK have been rounded to the nearest million, except when otherwise indicated. 4. Use of significant estimates and judgements in applying accounting policies The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses recognised. The accounting estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The accounting estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected The Bank's management discusses with the Audit Committee the development, selection and disclosure of the Bank's critical accounting policies and their application, and assumptions made relating to major estimation uncertainties. Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next financial year and about critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements is disclosed below.

16 4. Cont'd a) Uncertainties relating to court rulings, pending court cases and investigations by regulators Two court cases have been filed against Íslandsbanki and Landsbankinn, challenging the legality of fixing the principal of a mortgage to the consumer price index (CPI). Such indexation has been the industry standard for at least 30 years. However, the method of calculating the index has changed over the years, with the most recent change introduced in The possible effect on the Bank has not been estimated, but clearly, any downgrading of the indexation would affect the Bank and other home mortgage lenders in Iceland. Several rulings of the Supreme Court of Iceland during the years 2010 to 2013 in relation to foreign currency-linked loans have affected the Bank. Most important of these rulings was a ruling in June 2010 on the illegality of a principal of loans in ISK being linked to foreign currencies. The Bank consequently made an announcement to the effect that it would recalculate illegally foreign currency-linked loans, outstanding as well as paid-up loans, in line with the instructions given by the rulings. This process is in its final stages. The court rulings combined have effectively reduced the uncertainty regarding which foreign currency loans are illegal and how they should be recalculated. The uncertainty that still exists is more or less embedded in two court cases where final judgement is expected in the fourth quarter of The Icelandic Competition Authority ( ICA ) has initiated an investigation concerning alleged violations of the Competition law by Íslandsbanki where significant sanctions may come into consideration. Details of the investigation remain confidential. The Bank has presented its observations on the opposition document and will further cooperate with the ICA to resolve the case. The Bank has recognised provisions in the consolidated financial statements 2013 relating to court rulings and sanctions which are presented under Note 52. Uncertainties are further discussed under Note 58. b) Impairment of loans and receivables measured at amortised cost There were uncertainties in input parameters and assumptions used in the valuation of the loans and receivables acquired at a deep discount from Glitnir in 2008 and from Byr in Valuation estimates were based on the Bank's management's estimates for collateral values and a prudent risk premium, knowledge of the customers and the markets and official macroeconomic forecasts. Factors that can affect the recovery value of the loans and receivables include macroeconomic parameters such as the unemployment rate, inflation and wage growth, as well as actions taken by the government to facilitate and ease debt service and legislation that lengthens the collection process or increases taxation and the extent of customer participation in flexible maturity and payment equalisation programmes. At 31 December 2013 some of the uncertainties surrounding the initial valuation of the loans and receivables acquired at a deep discount and the economic environment were still present. The Bank's management is, however, confident that the Bank's capital base is robust enough to absorb reasonable variances in applied assumptions. The Bank's management reviews its loan portfolios on a quarterly basis to assess whether there is any objective evidence of impairment. In determining whether an impairment loss should be recognised in the income statement, the Bank's management makesjudgementsastowhetherthereisanyobservabledataindicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from loans and receivables. This evidence may include observable data indicating that there has been an adverse change in the payment status of borrowers in a group, or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on assets in the group. When scheduling its future cash flows the Bank's management uses estimates based on loans and receivables with similar credit risk characteristics and objective evidence of impairment similar to those in the portfolio. The methodology and assumptions used for estimating both the amount and timing of future cash flows are reviewed regularly to reduce any differences between loss estimates and actual loss experience. Impairment of loans and receivables is disclosed in more detail in Note c) Impairment of foreign exchange gains for loans acquired at a deep discount Since the acquisition of the deep discount loan portfolio, the foreign currency part of the loan portfolio has been divided into loans to customers with revenue and cash flows in foreign currency and loans to customers with revenue and cash flows in ISK. The foreign exchange gain or loss on these loans was recognised in profit or loss as net foreign exchange gain. However, as the Bank did not expect to recover foreign exchange gain relating to loans to customers with revenue and cash flows in ISK, the respective foreignexchangegainwasrecognisedimmediatelyinfullasanimpairmentlossinprofitorlossinthelineitemnetvaluation changes. At year end 2013, the foreign currency loans to customers with revenue and cash flows in ISK have either been, or are on the verge of being, converted to ISK loans or have been categorised as foreign currency loans to customers with revenue and cash flows in foreign currency. The foreign currency loan portfolio will therefore no longer be divided as described above and impairment of foreign exchange gain to customers with revenue and cash flows in ISK will not be applicable in the year Íslandsbanki hf.

17 4 Cont'd d) Determination of fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities The Bank determines the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are not quoted in active markets by using valuation techniques as described in accounting policy Notes 87.5, To the extent that it is practical, models use only observable data. However, for financial instruments that trade infrequently and have little price transparency, fair value is less objective and requires varying degrees of judgement depending on liquidity, concentration, uncertainty of market factors, pricing assumptions and other risks affecting the specific instrument, such as credit risk (both own and counterparty). e) The application of the effective interest method The application of the effective interest method when calculating the amortised cost of financial assets and financial liabilities requires management to estimate future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument, considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, call and similar options). Revisions to estimates of future cash flows, other than those arising from changes in market variables, generally result in the Bank having to adjust the carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability to reflect actual and revised estimated cash flows. In such cases the adjustment is recognised as income or expense in profit or loss in the period in which the estimate is revised. f) Restructuring and forbearance Restructuring of customers' debt has been one of the Bank's main tasks since October This has been a challenging task as such a large part of the customers needed forbearance measures. The Bank has offered several debt relief measures and set in place processes and resources to undertake the restructuring work. This has been done without a significant loss to the Bank because the loan portfolio was acquired at a deep discount. Legal issues, political environment and the general economy have further contributed in ways of uncertainty and complications. The Bank's management team has been kept well informed on the status of restructuring and forbearance on a regular basis. Further details on forbearance and the restructuring of customers' debt can be seen under Note 67 and in the Íslandsbanki Risk Report published concurrent to the annual report. g) Liquidity The Bank manages its liquidity by maintaining an adequate portfolio of liquid assets against liabilities. Internal liquidity limits assume that liquid assets cover all liabilities expected to mature within the next 12 month period, even under stressed market conditions. The expected maturity profile of the Bank's liabilities is based on analysis of the historical behaviour and other characteristics of the deposit base. The contractual maturity profile is set out in the liquidity risk disclosure in Note 70. The table requires judgement with respect to whether assets can be considered liquid and when deposits will be withdrawn. Íslandsbanki hf. Consolidated Financial Statements
